﻿What We Do﻿

Scientific Adventures for Girls (SAFG), a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, provides after school and summer STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) programs to young children with a special focus on girls and under served youth. SAFG's goals are to increase positive attitudes toward STEM in K-5th grade female students and to increase hands-on learning opportunities for girls everywhere to explore STEM concepts and encourage lifelong learning of STEM subjects.

Our Mission

SAFG's mission is to keep kids, especially girls and under served youth (starting at the age of 5), engaged in STEM for the long term, either as professionals in STEM fields or as contributing members of the global community with a strong background in technological skills and scientific methods.

Our Vision

SAFG envisions a gender­ equitable society, where all girls know their full potential and know they are capable of great things. They will be equipped with 21st century skills.

Get Involved

• If you are a female in a STEM field, you can meet with one of our classes and share your story about what you do and how you got interested in your field.

• You can donate materials for SAFG classes.​
